This hotfix fixes the following Backup & Restore issues:

  • Backport ignoreDelayBinding option from OADP-1.5 to OADP-1.4. This fixes restore failure with StorageClass field bindingMode: WaitForFirstConsumer on single zone clusters with volumes that can be remounted on different nodes.
  • Fix Bridge failure on container restart.
  • Change AWS S3 connections with OADP to use virtual host style urls instead of host path style by default for proxy compatibility. Proxy services may rely on the bucket in the url's subdomain for validation. Buckets with "." in their name will still default to path style for compatibility. S3 compatibles will continue to use path style urls. Path style format may be forced by adding "FORCEAWSPATHSTYLE" to .spec.transactionManager.testFlags in the DataProtectionAgent.
